Is Your Monitor Ghosting?
It may not be the monitor, it may be the cable. See the picture below. El Cheapo Belkin Cable vs a High Quality Monoprice VGA Cable. No Ghosting, Image is Crystal Clear now. Notice the difference in the Cables. White is the Belkin, Black is the 6$ Monoprice Gold Coated Ferrite Ended Cable. Just an FYI

Re: Is Your Monitor Ghosting?
i use a no name, gold plated dvi cable my dad "borrowed" from work. its pretty thick, so im not concerned. i have a 2ms response time monitor to, so have an extremly crisp clear image. whats the point of having a ferrite core on a moniter cable though?

Re: Is Your Monitor Ghosting?
No idea other than all the Lenevo Monitors we get in work have them, and those images are crystal clear.

DVI is the way to go for LCD monitors, no worries about cable quality.
Re: Is Your Monitor Ghosting?
I have a simple, generic brand DVI cable, and it works fine. It is kind of thick, though. Perhaps the cable that broke simply had a loose connection. As for the shielding, the more the better. 6 dollars is well woth it for a good picture.

Not many including my laptop have DVI Connects, just VGAZelig wrote:DVI is the way to go for LCD monitors, no worries about cable quality.
Re: Is Your Monitor Ghosting?
Don't forget that with a digital signal, cable quality does not matter, as long as both ends are connected! (Yeah those 100$+ "high quality" Monster cables are a rip off)martini161 wrote:i use a no name, gold plated dvi cable my dad "borrowed" from work. its pretty thick, so im not concerned. i have a 2ms response time monitor to, so have an extremly crisp clear image. whats the point of having a ferrite core on a moniter cable though?

If mythbusters has taught us anything, its damn hard to recreate a finger print that would can fool a fingerprint reader. I'm sure a forensic expert would have much easier time saying this was fake, and this thread would hurt your credibility as well, so
